Interactive Cat Toys Ball Super Drive Electric Cat Toy Automatic Rolling Robotic Car Motion Activate (Accessory)

I really wanted my cats to like this toy but unfortunately, they're a little too set in their ways for the fancy new toy their Meowmmy got them (apparently, they'll only play with the old beat-up toys they've had for years). However, the toy is genuinely quality and has an impressive array of bells and whistles for the price. (I mean, if you're reading this I'm sure you know all too well how expensive even basic cat toys are. "Oh boy, it's fabric in the shape of a fish AND the catnip is included? Wow!")I ended up testing it out pretty extensively and the different settings all worked excellently. The coolest thing about the toy for me is when the toy bumps into something, it knows to roll the opposite direction to keep moving. We have a lot of places it could get stuck and I was impressed by how often the toy could find it's way out of a jam. While the first and second settings are speed-related (Fast and Slow), the third setting is "Interactive", meaning it chirps and moves around a little bit to get the cat's attention before going on a kind of "Stand-By" waiting for the cat to bat at it, at which point it will react. The chirps are loud enough to get kitties' attention but I didn't find it annoyingly so - even better, you can turn the chirping off and on with just a couple presses of a button (none of that instant regret buying a noise-maker for your cat whose favorite time to play is 4 in the morning).The toy performed well on both wood floors and carpeting, I didn't notice a difference in speed or maneuverability. And it comes with the cutest little screwdriver for removing any cat hair that might have accumulated/gotten wrapped up in the toy. It also comes with a couple different soft elastic wraps for the ring and fuzzy ball attachments (that are also very cute). It doesn't require batteries because it actually comes with a cord for charging the toy and the light will indicate when the battery is low. For how versatile the toy is, it's so simple to operate - powering on, powering off, changing play and chirp settings, all with just one button.So while the toy wasn't a winner with my cats, they're well-known for being picky (our living room is a veritable graveyard of all the cat toys that have seen zero attention since the day I brought them home). But I would still recommend it to anybody looking to encourage their kitties to play and especially if you're trying to get a kitty to exercise - the toy is a lot of fun and it really works it's butt off for the money haha.

The media could not be loaded.  (List of pros and cons listed under my ramble.)Not all cats are the same! If your cat isn't interested in the toy, don't blame the toy. That's like down voting a flavor of food because your cat didn't like it- they have different personalities and tastes!As an example: I have 3 cats. Cat A (domestic) will only lazily glance at the toy. B (former stray) will watch it, and follow when it leaves line of sight. However, B won't approach when toy is on. Then there is C (stray in process of domestication) who absolutely loves it! He chases, hunts and tosses it around.If I only had cat A this toy would be a flop.However, for cat C this is more than worth it! Being a stray he was, understandably, extremely people shy. We needed a way for him to get more comfortable in his base camp room. So, I pulled out this toy that the other 2 cats didn't much like. To my surprise C LOVED it! Turned it on, left the room and he came out of hiding. Within a few days he'd come out to play with it while we were in the room. This built trust, and now C is so much more outgoing!PROS:- Different speed settings- Auto shut off- Interactive and will wake back up if cat plays with it- Makes sounds to encourage hunting, but can turn it off- Rechargeable- Decent battery length (10hrs on with often active play)- Can traverse carpet, hardwood and other surface changes- Can wiggle itself out if it goes into a crevice- After going to sleep, toy will wait an hour before signaling its still on with lights/sound. If cat interacts it wakes back up, if not it will go back to sleep.- Easy to clean- Fairly durableCONS:- Humming sound of motor becomes quite loud after active play. (Understandable with how much it smacks into things and gets tossed by the cat, but can be scary for timid cats.)- Toy is loud when running into things (Again, to be expected from a durable toy hitting a hard surface. But may be a turn off for those in a small space who think turning off the volume will equate to a silent toy.)In summary I would suggest this toy for cats with ground-prey instincts. It's wonderful for exercise in a open floorplan home, even if the cat only follows it around without approaching.

The media could not be loaded.  My cat can’t get enough of this toy! One of the best cat toy purchases I’ve made in a while that my picky boy actually likes! Works on carpet no problem, & I love the easy clean feature for hair that gets caught in the toy too.My only annoyance with this product is the battery life. The fact it is rechargeable is awesome but it only lasts a few hours and then dies. It claims to be motion activated to preserve battery life but it goes off by itself when no one is in the room often. The “motion activation” feature really only works when it is “asleep” and my cat bats at it to wake it up again.If you are okay with charging it once or twice a day (I work from home and my cat is very needy and at times seemingly DEMANDS some play time) it’s totally worth it! When I’m in a meeting or conference call and he’s acting needy or rambunctious I can quickly mute myself, pull the toy off the charger, and throw it in the living room and that will keep him entertained for a while on his own. Totally worth the money even if the battery life isn’t the greatest!

Amazing toy! It is fascinating to watch for me and my 3 cats. Sometimes gets lost but comes back on so you can find it eventually. Noise is not loud but adds to the fun.Charges quickly and lasts a long time on a charge.Will recommend to all my cat friends.

The ball is nice but the toy gets stuck a lot and quite often on the fur costume that wraps around it. If the ball moves the right way the ears or feet of the costumes get trapped underneath the ball lifting enough the ball can touch the floor to move and it just sits there. Be better if they could remove the ring and just have a fur covered ball that moves. The plastic ring is quite hard and in the fast mode can slam right into your kitty.

At least for my cat, this toy is perfect! Robust, resistant, fast movements, intelligent and the charge lasts long enough. Unless your cat is afraid of this moving quickly and making sounds, your cat should enjoy this toy. I had this one for a while now and it still works perfectly and my cat ENJOYs it a lot.

Got this as a surprise present for a relative's moggy. He likes chasing lasers so thought a toy like this would interest him. Tried a cheaper toy that just span on the spot on a very short pile carpet. Reviews suggested this would cope much better and it does. The somewhat chaotic behaviour definitely gets the cats' attention and he follows it around before finally pouncing. Surprised by the loud tweeting and 'fluttering' action that mimics a bird! Expensive but clearly a well made, quality item.

This is such a great toy! Doesn't get stuck in hard to reach places and always manages to extract itself. The cats all love it, buy it!

Bought it for my two rescue cats and they love it! It’s good quality holds its charge well is quick to recharge and works on carpet as promised….my two chase it all over the house 😂

works great Rusty our cat loves it
